A man and woman stare intently at a desktop computer. They’re coworkers, but maybe they are more than that. He’s showing her something with Lotus 1-2-3, and she leans into him. He can feel her breath on his neck, her warmth on his back. He stiffens. Like most PCs in the early 1990s, the computer is a bland, beige box.

The old ‘if I own the bank 1000 dollars it is a me problem, if I own the bank 100000000 then it is a bank problem’ I guess works for law too

Interesting point, with the reduction of in person work/friendships- yea this is probably something that changed and we didn’t notice

Watching people storm out of One Battle After Another out in the Minnesota Sticks says everything about rural US right now. Luckily some folks stayed and we had a fucking blast

You’re probably into Pods as an alt to cars

Who would dare want to spend a moment with an imperfect human when you can instead enjoy the soulless experience of being in a jag lol

It feels wrong to be silent when being bashed over the head with clips of people actively lying about reality. I don’t know what to do but scream because voting didn’t change anything, attending protests has done very little, the overwhelming feeling of being unable to influence except to be a stick

So your priority is a made up problem instead of the real heath care issue we all face, understood

@codyjohnston.bsky.social great new episode, love you, could not have been an easy episode to make, getting death threats for the first time of my life after saying Kirk’s message should be questioned, perfect wording from you as usual.

The language of non-consent around AI is really telling. "It's too late to be scared." "It's here whether we want it or not." "You'll have to learn to work with it." "You can't fight the inevitable."

All just variations of "you're not allowed to say no." Creepy technology made by creepy people.

If you can play eighth notes (one and two and three and four and) with one hand, then play quarter notes on the two and four beats (every third hit with the eighth note hand) then you’re like 90% of the way there. Key is to just start slow, anyone can drum, if I can so can you!

That’s like making a restaurant out of a random but beloved movie. Imagine they did this with Forrest Gump, would be so weird.

I know many of you will say, “told you so!” And in my case, yes, you did.

But a loss like this — not just Ms Attiah, but the Post Op-Ed page as a valuable platform, is terrible for all of us.

Karen Attiah @karenattiah.bsky.social · Sep 15

Some personal news:

I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting.

Thread incoming.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).
